What are the most popular student activities/groups?

Katrina

The greek system isn't very big, but its very influential to the party scene. this is definitely a party school, but the week isn't full of drunks. overall, we're classy partiers.

Brett

best organizations are sports teams and greek life. Athletic events are HUGE. My closest friends are from my dorm and from m sorority. On Saturday night I am always with my friends.

Jordan

The most popular group on campus to me is the Greek System. I am in Pi Beta Phi and i love it. I always leave my door in my dorm open.

Katelyn

As a member of the Pi Beta Phi sorority, we are actively involved in our community. The social aspect of the campus is very rewarding, and there are always activities to take part in. Not all students party, which is a stereotype we can't escape, so there are groups and organizations that appeal to all types of students.

The greek life is very big, and there are always people out. It's always nice and always a party. Its really fun.

Devin

I am involved in the greek system. I have met amazing friends that I know I will have for the rest of my life. Many students leave their dorm doors open. We have some amazing traditions, such as the undie run, floatopia, etc.

isla vista is infested with college aged students with no parents around. So the obvious will inevitably occur. Im in a sorority so I mostly exposed to all the greek partys in IV. Most houses in IV are pretty welcoming especially if you know at least one person living there. Most people dont really date because things get complicated when there are so many young people to choose from.
